History

Rinaldi Furniture, founded in 2005 has developed a strong local reputation for excellence in bespoke design and craftsmanship.

All pieces are created in a spacious workshop, a hidden gem in the heart of rural Lincolnshire.

Here, within the idyllic gardens of Hall Farm, Harpswell, the skilled team create beautiful bespoke kitchens and furniture for discerning homeowners.

Our kitchens, fitted wardrobes and furniture are highly regarded both locally and by the UK home interior community and Rinaldi Furniture was awarded Best of Houzz award in 2017 for client satisfaction.

Tim’s work has been featured in many magazines and books including the “Edexcel A Level Design Technology” textbook.

He is also a long-standing member of the Northern Contemporary Furniture Association, representing Furniture Makers in the North of the UK.

Meet the Maker

Leicestershire born Tim displayed a natural flair for woodwork from an early age, thriving on the creativity of sculpting a piece of wood into something unique.

From leaving school and serving a 5-year apprenticeship with a kitchen manufacturer in Nottinghamshire and after a decade working for this company, he graduated with a BA Honours in Furniture Design and Manufacture from the University of Lincoln.

I never stop getting satisfaction from the process of turning a piece of timber into something of design excellence and fine quality.

Following glowing reviews for his work by family and friends of tables, cabinets and other unique furniture commissioned from scratch, he decided to extend his services to a wider local market.

Twelve years on Rinaldi Furniture has gone from strength to strength, serving customers with a diverse range of interior tastes and unique design preferences throughout Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire.

Tim and the team enjoy the cabinet making process and each piece is carefully handmade in the Rinaldi workshop with the highest craftsmanship.

“I love the whole creative process of speaking to a client and gaining an understanding of their requirements and what they would like to achieve and helping them to realise their vision.

I never stop getting satisfaction from the process of turning a piece of timber into something of design excellence and fine quality.

It is the smile on my clients’ faces when the final piece is fitted into their home and the pleasure they get from their furniture that makes my role very fulfilling.”
